Before You Upload Your CAT Signature

Start with a good-quality signature image. These quick checks can make the final resize easier:

  • Sign on clean, plain white paper.
  • Use black or dark blue ink.
  • Keep the complete signature visible.
  • Avoid large empty margins around the writing.
  • Take the photo in good, even lighting.
  • Make sure there are no shadows, folds, or marks over the signature.

How to Prepare Your Signature for CAT Registration

  1. 1

    Upload Your Signature

    Select a clear scanned signature or a good-quality photo from your phone, tablet, or computer.

  2. 2

    Crop the Extra Space

    Remove blank paper and unnecessary margins around the signature. Cropping first gives the signature more usable space in the final image.

  3. 3

    Resize and Compress

    Adjust the dimensions and reduce the file size according to the CAT requirements applicable to your registration cycle. Avoid compressing the image more than necessary.

  4. 4

    Preview and Download

    Check the final image before downloading. Make sure the signature is clear and the file matches the required format, dimensions, and size.

Mobile Tip

Phone photos are often much larger than required. Crop the surrounding paper first, then reduce the file size. This usually gives better results than compressing the full photo.
